Page 8 of 9 Mixer Showers

Return to page 1 of Mixer Showers

Mixer Showers are taking the showering industry by storm with unique designs and ingenious, user-friendly features. They work by taking water from your hot and cold feeds and combining them inside the mixing valve until they reach optimum temperature. Mixer showers are usually available in one of three choices, Exposed Valve or Variable (EV), Built-In Rigid (BIR) and Built-In Valve or Variable (BIV). Exposed valve mixer showers are mounted inside the showering area with pipes that connect through the wall, built-in rigid mixer showers are installed inside the wall with just the shower control and the rigid shower head visible, and lastly the built-in valve mixer shower has the valve installed in the wall but with an adjustable riser rail fitted in the shower area. You’ll often see BIR and BIV mixer showers described as “concealed” like below.

What's the practical difference between exposed, built-in rigid (BIR) and built-in valve (BIV) mixer showers, and which style suits my bathroom?

Exposed mixers have the pipework and controls visible in the showering area and suit period or easily retrofitted bathrooms, while BIR (often called concealed) hides the plumbing in the wall so only the control and a rigid head are seen for a very clean look. BIV also places the valve in the wall but gives you an adjustable riser rail in the shower area, so you get concealment plus flexibility. If you want a minimal, modern finish pick a concealed/BIR or BIV unit; if you prefer an ornate or traditionally styled bathroom, an exposed valve looks right and can be simpler to replace later.

Should I buy a thermostatic, manual or digital mixer shower for safety and consistent temperature?

Thermostatic mixers automatically blend hot and cold and react to pressure or temperature changes, which is why most of the range are popular for family bathrooms. Manual mixers give you simple control but you must balance hot and cold yourself, whereas digital or microprocessor showers offer very precise temperature/flow control and smart features such as presets or smartphone control. For households with children or vulnerable users, thermostatic models give reliable temperature stability; pick digital if you want programming and remote control.

How many outlets and what head type will give me the experience I want?

Outlets range from one (single handset or fixed head) through two (most common, often a rainfall head plus handset) to three (head, handset and extra jets or filler), with two‑outlet options and single‑outlet choices. If you're fitting a small ensuite a single handset or combined rain-and-handset unit works well; for a family bathroom a two‑outlet setup with a rainfall wall head and handset gives versatility. For a spa feel, look at the limited three‑outlet systems that add body jets alongside a handset and rainfall head.

How do I match a mixer shower to my home's water system and pressure?

Products are labelled for supply type, many are for high‑pressure/combi boilers, a small selection suit low‑pressure/gravity systems. If you have a combi boiler, pick an HP/combi rated mixer; gravity‑fed systems need products specified for low pressure or you may need a pumped solution. Electric showers are different and only need a cold feed; use them if you don't have a hot feed to the shower.

Which finishes and safety or eco features should influence my choice?

Chrome is the most common finish, with black and brushed brass also widely available to suit contemporary or traditional schemes. Look for cool touch valves if you have young children or vulnerable users, and eco shower options if you want water‑saving modes or sensors. A chrome thermostatic bar mixer with eco mode gives a classic look, steady temperature and lower running costs.
